C157 The Anger of the Phoenix Seep (1/2)
Everything that had happened today was very abnormal, especially after the appearance of the Empress Dowager. Phoenix Seep had even rejected the idea of entering the palace. That look didn't match with his at all. Although this person was usually silly when facing her, he had his own bottom line.
Feng Zi didn't answer Mu Ru Yue's question and just remained silent. Who knew what she was thinking? This time, Mu Ru Yue didn't say anything and just sat beside Feng Chen. After she found a chair to sit down, she waited for Feng Zi to come back to her senses.
Roughly an hour later, Phoenix Seep suddenly spoke up. ”This King … Have you been told how This King's mother went? ”
Mu Ru Yue thought for a moment before nodding her head. ”Assassinate the Emperor?”
Feng Chen shook her head, her eyes full of mockery. ”This is the saying of the outside world. In fact, This King's mufei was forced to her death by that group of people.” As Feng Chen said this, she slammed her fist on the table.
It was difficult to conceal the rage in his tone.
Mu Ru Yue was also stunned. No matter what, she was a princess of Thousand Leaves Sect. Marrying the Emperor and assassinating him was something acceptable, but was she being forced to die? This was somewhat surprising.
Feng Li suppressed his anger and tried his best to remain calm as he continued, ”She is the princess of Thousand Leaves Sect. Even if she marries into royal father, her status is still very important. However, in the Empress Dowager's eyes, she was a spy for Thousandleaf. Furthermore, after this king was born, he was forced to choose between this king and her own life.
I don't need a prince with a thousand leaves in the next month, but if this prince doesn't have a matriarch, then she'll turn a blind eye. ”
At this point, Feng Chen gave a snort of laughter.
”The Emperor agreed?” Mu Ru Yue felt that this was a bit unimaginable. Even if it was an impolite emperor, he definitely wouldn't make such a decision.
Feng Chen laughed even louder when she heard Mu Ru Yue's question. She even laughed so hard that tears flowed as she mocked, ”In the Laiyue Dynasty, no one can stop the empress dowager. The empress dowager even listened to my father's words. royal father agreed. He had even announced to the outside world that Princess Thousandleaf had attempted to assassinate him. He forced his mother to her death, and because of his guilt, he bestowed the Linglong Palace upon me in the name of this duke's meritorious service. ”
When Mu Ru Yue heard this, she couldn't help but click her tongue. Wasn't this empress dowager too one-handed?
”Therefore, if we were to offend her, there will be no good ending. I didn't stop you when you entered the palace because I didn't want you to be targeted by her. I never thought that heaven's will would cause this to happen. ”
As Feng Chen spoke to here, she frowned.
”I have no intention to become enemies with others, but I will absolutely not tolerate others slandering me. If I did it, then I will bear the consequences. If I did not do it, then, even if I were to die, I will drag her with me to hell. ”
Mu Ru Yue's tone was cold, but determined.
She suddenly remembered the first time he had fallen into her room. That was probably what was hidden in her eyes at that time? Not for anything, and certainly not afraid of death.
Feng Chen really liked Mu Ru Yue like this, but now, she hated Mu Ru Yue for being so roundabout. If she had copied the Buddhist scriptures, at least she wouldn't have to face the empress dowager's wrath. But then he thought, if Murong Yue really did compromise, perhaps he wouldn't like it anymore, right?
Feng Chen couldn't tell what she was thinking. However, he saw another possibility in Mu Ru Yue.
If only mufei had been braver … If they were to bring him out of the palace, wouldn't that be a completely different situation? However, this thought only flashed through his mind. mufei could not forget her royal father, and could not abandon her position as an imperial concubine either.
In fact, if it wasn't for the steward, he wouldn't even know the truth of what had happened all those years ago.
